find the values of the unknowns in each of the following rhombuses
pls help me :))

Answer:
q = 74°
step by step explanation
for figure ( a)
ABD = ADB ( angle opposite to equal opposite sides are equal )
ABD = 38°
ABD + ADB + q = 180° ( angle sum property of triangle )
38+38 + q = 180°
106 + q = 180
q = 180 - 106
q = 74°
Given:- For part (1)-
ABCD is a rhombus
∠BDA = 38°
For part (2)-
DCBA is a rhombus
∠BAC = 42°
To find:- For part (1)-
value of ∠q and ∠p
For part (2)-
value of ∠r and ∠s
Solution:-
For part (1)-
∠BDA = ∠p (alternate angles)
∴ ∠p = 38°
So, ∠DBA = 90° - 38° ( in a rhombus every angle is 90°)
∠DBA = 52°
Now, in ΔADB,
∠DBA + ∠q + ∠BDA = 180° (angle sum property of a triangle)
52° + ∠q + 38° = 180°
∠q + 90° = 180°
∴ ∠q = 90°
For part (2):-
∠BAC = 42° (given)
∠BAC = ∠r (alternate angles)
∴ ∠r = 42°
Now, ∠CAD = 90° - ∠BAC (in rhombus every angle is of 90°)
so, ∠CAD = 48° (a)
Now, in ΔDEA,
∠AED = 90° (diagonals of a rhombus intersect each other at 90°)
∠EAD = 48° (because of a)
S0,
∠AED + ∠s + ∠EAD = 180° (angle sum property)
90° + ∠s + 48° = 180°
∠s = 42°
Hence, the values of the unknown values are answered.
